    Someone really needs to make a standard youtube video about isolating and troubleshooting hum on the PAS. Seem to be many many post on right channel  bass control causing hum.

    Here is a vid and a photo of the chassis top and bottom for lead dress. Anyone know what kind of hum this is and help on how to isolate this? THX

    Pulled off both B+ leads off from Can and fired up and Still hear the hum. Then tried with rectifier disconnected from Can cap also and still hums on one side. Has to be the Filament circuit IE likely the Selenium no?
